   Well, it depends on the type of truck.  For example, if it is
unnecessarily high off the ground, it means the guy has a very small
penis.

   Assuming it's normal height, we have several possibilities:

Migrant Farm Worker:
	It'd never work; long-distance relationships never do.

Needs Truck to Move Stuff:
	If you need to *buy* a vehicle to move stuff, you're moving
	stuff too often.  You'll never be home.

Truck-Obsession Disorder (TOD):
	Can *you* stand that Dodge truck jingle?  I can't.  He'll be
	humming it all day.

Otherwise Normal Guy who ended up with truck for one reason or
another:
	Yeah, fine, but your odds of finding this guy are slim.  And
	anyway, Janice only said "probably."

Otherwise Normal Guy who ended up with truck for one reason or another
and is really, really defensive about it:
	Give it a rest, guy.
